Quiver plots can be made using a figure factory as detailed in this page.
Basic Quiver Plot¶In [1]:
import plotly.figure_factory as ff import numpy as np x,y = np.meshgrid(np.arange(0, 2, .2), np.arange(0, 2, .2)) u = np.cos(x)*y v = np.sin(x)*y fig = ff.create_quiver(x, y, u, v) fig.show()
In [2]:
import plotly.figure_factory as ff import plotly.graph_objects as go import numpy as np x,y = np.meshgrid(np.arange(-2, 2, .2), np.arange(-2, 2, .25)) z = x*np.exp(-x**2 - y**2) v, u = np.gradient(z, .2, .2) # Create quiver figure fig = ff.create_quiver(x, y, u, v, scale=.25, arrow_scale=.4, name='quiver', line_width=1) # Add points to figure fig.add_trace(go.Scatter(x=[-.7, .75], y=[0,0], mode='markers', marker_size=12, name='points')) fig.show()What About Dash?¶
Dash is an open-source framework for building analytical applications, with no Javascript required, and it is tightly integrated with the Plotly graphing library.
Learn about how to install Dash at https://dash.plot.ly/installation.
Everywhere in this page that you see fig.show()
, you can display the same figure in a Dash application by passing it to the figure
argument of the Graph
component from the built-in dash_core_components
package like this:
import plotly.graph_objects as go # or plotly.express as px fig = go.Figure() # or any Plotly Express function e.g. px.bar(...) # fig.add_trace( ... ) # fig.update_layout( ... ) from dash import Dash, dcc, html app = Dash() app.layout = html.Div([ dcc.Graph(figure=fig) ]) app.run(debug=True, use_reloader=False) # Turn off reloader if inside Jupyter
